Port Mancoosi to pkgsrc
- Contact: tech-pkg
- Duration estimate: 1 month
Mancoosi is a project to measure distribution quality by the number of conflicts in a software distribution environment.
The main work of this project would be to analyse possible incompatibilities of pkgsrc and mancoosi (i.e., incompatibilities between Debian and pkgsrc), to write a converter from pkg_summary(5) to CUDF (the format used by Mancoosi). You will need OCaml for doing so, as the libraries used by Mancoosi are written in OCaml.
When you are a French student in the third year of your Bachelor, or first year of your Master, you could also do this project as an internship for your studies.
